Katherine Clewett Katherine is a sculptor, designer and maker. This body of work forms part of an ongoing investigation into how space can be mapped by light and create an element of ‘occupation’. Light seems transient and also physical since it maps shapes across spaces. Through its direction and diffusion, it illuminates and yet also casts shadow. These shadows can seem mysterious, even menacing, when the object becomes distorted and magnified. This might transcend us into the realm of the unfamiliar and unknown, which seems a precarious and conspicuous place to occupy.
